| Plot Summary of Refugee - Bio of a Space Tyrant |
"A young hispanic refugee flees the moon Callisto with his family. They board a space bubble. The bubble is attacked by pirates many times."
Ed Shoup, Resident Scholar

"This was the first in the "Bio of a Space Tyrant" series.
In the first book, our hero, Hope Hubris, is just a kid.
He gets kicked around a lot as his family gets murdered,
raped, et. al. and he gets beaten up too. I guess this
is to make him angry so he kicks butt in the second book,
"Mercenary"."
Steve, Resident Scholar
